How Are Things in Glocca Morra?

Monday, January 14th, 2008

While I’m in a quoting mood…

There’s a line in an episode of Sports Night (one of my all-time favorite TV shows)–

I understand what makes a woman think that any man is better than nothing. I’ll just never understand what makes any woman think she’s got nothing.

–which I think aptly sums up the relationship between a lot of libraries and their vendors.

Don’t Gimme No Lip!

Thursday, February 22nd, 2007

Michelle Boule brilliantly sums up Roy Tennant, John Blyberg, and Nicole Engard:

Lip service is not the same as service!

In other words, actions speak louder than words. Don’t talk the talk if you’re not willing to walk the walk.

And y’know, as far as I’m concerned, that goes for ILS vendors and libraries. It goes for the way you treat your customers and the way you treat your employees.

So, put that in your pipes and smoke it!
